This is Visual Journalism [43]

When you hear the name Moritz Stefaner – assuming that you’re familiar with the world of data visualization – , the first idea that pops up in to your mind is the long list amazing interactive projects signed by the ‘Operator of Truth and Beauty‘, right? Projects like the OECD Better Life index, emoto or even the recent Electionland, just to name a few.

So, why are we opening this edition of Visual Journalism speaking of Moritz’ work? Well, in case you missed it, Moritz just developed an infographic for Scientific American that deserves to be mentioned in this space dedicated to showcase information design in magazines and newspapers.

The topic in hand is the ongoing disappearance of honeybees, as detailed in a research paper published by ecologist Laura A. Burkle, now at Montana State University, and her colleagues. We open our selection of infographics with that work, that also had the participation of illustrator Jillian Walters.

Hope you enjoy the full list:
